Arunandi and his metaphysical explanation

AruNandi, the foremost student of Meykandar, provides a metaphysical explanation of the fundamental SAMENESS of all human beings:
Quote
This SEEING within the seeings is the SAME for all creatures and transcends all differences -- cultural, linguistic, national, religious, ethnic and what not; but remains unavailable for the most part because it remains concealed , hidden and distant because of the dominance of the malas.
While seeings may not bring about absolute agreement, a convergence in perception, thinking, feeling and so forth, the SEEING on the other hand does bring about this. Whoever succeeds in installing SEEING by subduing the individualistic seeings, tend to agree among themselves absolutely by the SAMENESS of Being-in-the-World that now conditions their existence. This unassailable and unchanging, unsubvertible , indisplaceable agreement , the SAMENESS of SEEING brings about also confers apodeictic, certainty and indubitability, for long the search of the philosophers both in the East and West.
This is the LIMIT in the hermeneutic scientific struggles of human beings --- the seeking of consensus with others for an opinion, idea, understanding and so forth. While under normal circumstances agreements may be possible in some matters but not all, at this LIMITING case the agreement or consensus is TOTAL and ABSOLUTE.
Unquote.
